An interesting choice now presents itself for Democrat supporters, Tom Perez or Keith Ellison? The Bernie Sanders wing (Anarchists, RevCom, SJW) of the party supports Keith Ellison, the Obama/Clinton wing (Moonbat Limo-Liberals) will most likely support Tom Perez. However, both options are substantially far left.

Today Labor Secretary Tom Perez announces his intention to run for Chair of the Democrat National Committee. Perez launches a website –SEE HERE– toward that endeavor:

The last month hasn’t been easy for Democrats. But now isn’t the time to despair – it’s time to organize and fight. ~ Tom Perez

Prior to becoming Labor Secretary, Perez was head of the civil rights division within the Eric Holder Department of Justice. Many people attribute the social justice legal concept of “disparate impact” to the activism of Tom Perez. CTH archives on Perez HERE

Disparate impact works around the race-baiting problem of equal opportunity by advancing a proposition that only equal outcomes can define whether an adverse impact exists. A ridiculous proposition. All people are created equal – but not all people take advantage of the equality afforded them; some -if not many- are just lazy, and their failures cannot -and should not- be commingled with the success of those who exert effort.

2014 WASHINGTON – A federal judge overturned the Obama administration’s “desperation” move to try to find more ways to prove discrimination in housing in a decision Monday that also delivered a searing rebuke to Thomas Perez, a Cabinet official whom liberals are pushing to be the next attorney general.

Judge Richard J. Leon ruled that the administration cannot rely on “disparate impact” to judge discrimination, dealing a blow to civil rights groups that said the analytical tool gave them more room to file discrimination cases.

Potentially just as important for President Obama’s postelection moves was the rebuke Judge Leon delivered to Mr. Perez, whom he accused of gaming the legal system, timing cases and arranging a settlement in order to keep the Supreme Court from issuing a ruling that would have undercut the administration’s discrimination argument.

In light of the re-opening of the DNC emails issue (BTW, not sure that’s a brilliant move, Dems), I thought just maybe they were also re-hashing Ms. Hillary’s supporter, father of Orlando killer. Thanks, NJF.

Nah, they could pick Tulsi Gabbard. They could pick Jim Webb. They could pick Janet Napolitano. They could pick plenty of people. It is entirely possible to be affected by the “hug-it-out, kumbaya” tendency without completely throwing one’s critical thinking skills out the window.

Unfortunately for the present Democratic Party, however, people like Tulsi Gabbard and Jim Webb are (at the moment) personae non grata, and people like Napolitano are sneered at as has-beens. Trump is going to have to spend several years annihilating the efforts of the present leadership before seeds like Gabbard will be able to sprout and grow out of the smoking ruin to assume any position of real influence.

I figured Webb and Gabbard would defect to the republicans much like Gen Flynn. I honestly think that Gabbard should have been offered a significant position in the administration, Trump puts people in positions to do specific things, once some destruction has been accomplished someone like a Gabbard or Webb could run the “fixed” departments, however they wouldn’t come out unscathed from the cutting.

Yes the dems haven’t been this frustrated since reconstruction.
I personally want them to pick Rep Ellison to lead their party.
Ellison is an islamic cultist that idolizes Louis Farrakahn.
The dems are now the party of islamic cultist and commies.

I want Ellison too. But really, mr disparate impact would be fine. Either one would be more than capable of destroying any credibility the dimocrat party might have with anyone on the plus side of mean IQ. Looks like we can’t lose.

“disparate impact ” assumes any differential outcome between groups is per se improper… No other evidence of ” discrimination” need be produced—an absurd proposition based on what we know abou individual and group differences and their biological bases ( plural of basis)…

I looked at his web. In every “Tom in action” picture, he is sitting next to, or interacting with an African American person. I surmise this is because his opponent is African American. The Ds cannot seem to get away from race, nor can they conceive of an America where we are all just American-Americans.

This comment most accurately describes Tom Perez and his circle. They view everything through the purview of race, ethnicity, gender, income. I can understand “mentoring” minorities to reach success but I can’t imagine that Tom Perez and his circle will ever get to the finish line, where they say, “OK, our work is done, we have helped minorities to reach parity, the rest is up to the individual.” Rather, this group of people are always looking around the corner for the next example of something keeping them down.

Thank heavens the Democratic Party continues to be the party of moon battery. JFK must be very sad and spinning in his grave and his brother Teddy must be thrilled and ready for another gander at Chappaquiddick Island. Fidel lives in The Democratic Party!

With the facts presented by Sundance, “Perez was head of the civil rights division within the Eric Holder Department of Justice.” The lying and corruption get a leg up at the DNC!
Wow! My shorts are wet!
Fools

So, imma let you finish (Kanye Reference) but let me get this straight.

The guy who ran the LABOR department, during a period of time when Jobs have demonstrably been suppressed… who is getting his ass handed to him by the Trump economy before he even hits office,…. THAT GUY is the one who wants to run the DNC?

I think America wants Keith Ellison. He is the perfect candidate for DNC Chair. Who is this Perez guy, anyway . . . What’s the “poop” on this guy? Maybe America would like him just as well? Either one of these A̶m̶e̶r̶i̶c̶a̶-̶h̶a̶t̶i̶n̶g̶ ̶l̶o̶s̶e̶r̶s̶ viable candidates could probably do the job if you know what I mean. Ya think?

It is the fact that actual cases of racial discrimination regarding individuals are so rare that the SJW types had to invent the concept of disparate impact. We had come so far as a society that abject discrimination on the basis of race all but disappeared. The rare cases that did arise invariably involved discrimination against people who were white (perversely referred to as ‘reverse discrimination’). Instead of celebrating this great turn of events, we had to stir the pot some more and come up with new narratives of why we are still such a racist country. This is very sad.
